What Aidan didn’t say was: “You’re Calvin’s ex-wife. Ethan and Calvin have been good friends for years—don’t you recognize him?”

Since there’s that kind of connection, of course, they’re going to take advantage of it. Why let someone else profit from it while they’re left drinking northwest wind?

Adriana scoffed. “Double standards. You really know how to double standard.”

He doesn’t like her being entangled with Calvin, yet he supports her using her identity within the company to carve out a business empire. In the end, they’re all the same underneath.

Aidan didn’t seem the least bit bothered by her jab. Instead, he gave a mischievous smile.

“Jessica just left, and the office is already buzzing—saying you’ve got both the brains and the ambition, and that you froze out a senior manager to get them kicked. Don’t you want to take the chance to make a triumphant comeback?”

Adriana thought to herself, Why would I even care about that stuff?

She smiled politely. “Thank you, Director Aidan,

    The sky, once clear, was suddenly covered by a thick layer of dark clouds. The light indoors dimmed sharply—the air carried the momentum of an approaching storm.“It looks like it’s going to rain.”As she spoke, a branch-shaped bolt of lightning crawled across the window, hovering menacingly in the clouds before vanishing in an instant.Startled, Adriana quickly shut the window.Calvin found three books, and outside, the heavy rain began pounding down, as if squeezing time itself—clattering and rushing in a wild torrent.Summer rain came in torrents of lightning and thunder.Click!!!An explosive clap of thunder tore through the sky, as if it wanted to blow a hole right through it.Calvin frowned. “The weather forecast is getting more and more inaccurate.”“Yeah, the forecast didn’t say anything about rain.”Adriana felt a twinge of frustration—how could she possibly send Calvin away in such a downpour?She couldn’t even think of a polite way to ask him to leave.Helpless, she accepte

    Adriana subconsciously thought of the night she had slept in Calvin’s bed. That had to be him holding herself up, right?So… his arm’s deterioration was, in a way, indirectly related to her.A pang of guilt hit her—she hadn’t helped him rest; instead, she’d dragged him down.“You’d better listen to Henry. Take a good rest for a while, and only try again when you’re completely recovered.”Henry snorted coldly. “Do you think he’ll listen to me? I told him to go to the hospital for an X-ray, and he ignored me like some stubborn old grandfather. I don’t know what got into him this time—came back from New Jersey and actually ran to the hospital to find me.”She was the one who told him to go to the hospital after getting off the plane.Could it be… he had listened to her?Or had the pain in his arm gotten so bad that he finally realized how serious it was?Calvin’s cold eyes swept over Henry like a blade. “The tea’s too bland—do you want me to gag you with it?”Henry muttered, “I don’t kno

    Last time on the mountain, there had been plenty of space and plenty of people, so she could hide herself well. But today, all her expressions and movements were in plain view—she simply had nowhere to hide.Pretending to be at peace with Calvin… she couldn’t quite pull it off.When Ethan spoke, her first reaction was to refuse. “Fortunately, there’s a breeze today. It’s not too hot, and I’m not too—”The word thirsty never made it out. Abruptly, a cup of tea was placed in front of her. The person who served it said nothing—silent, aloof, and cold.Adriana tried to hide the unnaturalness in her expression, tugging at the corner of her lips. “Thank you.”“It’s fine.” The reply was bland, almost careless.Calvin drained the tea in his own cup and picked up the teapot again. His arms were slender, his elbows slightly bent as he poured—every movement simply pleasing to the eye.Henry, seated beside Adriana, smiled and held out his cup. Adriana started to help pass it to Calvin, but before

    This way.Adriana had been instructed to go to Cloud Group to meet Ethan. She wasn’t even sure if Ethan was at the company, and if she made a wasted trip, wouldn’t that just delay everything unnecessarily?So, she decided to call first to confirm.Who would’ve thought the voice on the other end of the line would be Henry’s?“You guys are together?” she asked.Henry chuckled. “Adriana, you’re looking for Ethan and don’t even want to see me in passing?”Adriana rubbed her brow with a long finger. She was contacting Ethan for work, not to entertain anyone. Why was Henry inserting himself into the middle of it?“How many times have I even seen you? Besides, what’s so great about seeing you? I don’t feel like running to the hospital with broken bones every other day.”Ethan took the phone and said, “We’re out right now. Do you want to come over?”If she refused now, wouldn’t that just be a wasted opportunity?“Sure. Wait for me a bit.”Using the address Ethan gave her, Adriana navigated he

    She purposely paused for a moment, as if speaking out of turn, then quickly made up for it with a polite smile.“Lawyer Clarke is very capable. I’ve learned a lot from her.”Those words—half praise, half criticism—were deliberately subtle.In just one sentence, she hinted that Adriana’s relationship with the company’s top management wasn’t just a normal hierarchical one—it was closer, more ambiguous.Mark gave a faint smile. “Really?”Jessica added, “To be honest, what Lawyer Clarke is most famous for isn’t her litigation skills, but her personal charm. She’s beautiful, and has a very unique personality. So, it’s not surprising she’s popular with men. What’s strange, though, is that she had a stable boyfriend—and then they suddenly broke up.”Mark’s expression remained calm. “Strange. I’ve never heard anything about Lawyer Clarke being in a relationship.”Jessica nodded. “Oh, she definitely had one. Her boyfriend used to send her roses twice a week. It caused quite a stir. We were all
